PDF Accessibility Remediation

Creating accessible PDFs is more complicated than simply using PDF accessibility testing software built by Adobe, Microsoft Word or CommonLook. Criterion’s PDF accessibility experts will also manually test and repair issues such as color contrast, fonts, table formatting, heading styles, bulleted and numbered lists, spacing, logical reading order and more! Without these manual repairs end-users of assistive technologies may interpret the document in the wrong order, or in a format too confusing for them to comprehend.

Did you know PDF accessibility testing software can only capture 30% to 35% of PDF accessibility failures?

During the past 20 years, Criterion has provided government and corporate clients with the most comprehensive manual PDF accessibility testing available! Because we work closely with the federal government’s largest agencies, we understand each agency’s specific PDF accessibility requirements that must be satisfied before a document is considered Section 508 compliant.
